The Formula 1 circus heads to Shanghai for the 1000th F1 Grand Prix in China, the 2019 Chinese GP, where Lewis Hamilton will be looking to script another victory at the Shanghai International Circuit.

Mercedes Valtteri Bottas leads the championship standings (44), just one point ahead of teammate Lewis Hamilton (43) while Red Bull Racing's Max Verstappen is third with 27 points.

Charles Leclerc of Ferrari settled for third place as engine problems cost him a victory in the Bahrain Grand Prix and Vettel has been outperformed by his young teammate in the opening two races. Ferrari will be hoping for a better performance at China and more importantly to get into contention for the title fight.

The Chinese Grand Prix has seen Mercedes dominance in the recent times with the Brackley based team winning 5 out of 15 races at the Shanghai International circuit while Ferrari has won 4 and Mclaren have 3 to their credit.
